SURF crews move 39% of steel for DUNE

    Crews at the Sanford Underground Research Facility have moved about 39% of the I-beam steel needed to construct the cryotat for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment. That represents nearly 2 million pounds of steel that completely fills the south cavern that is 500 feet long, 65 feet wide, and about 7 stories tall.

    Scientists travel to Fermilab to discuss future of high-energy physics

    Fermilab recently hosted over 500 physicists for the American Physical Society’s biennial Division of Particles and Fields meeting. With presentations by Fermilab Director Norbert Holtkamp and CERN Director-General Mark Thomson, the meeting provided particle physicists the opportunity to come together and consider the future of high-energy physics research.

    LHC physicists can’t save them all

      As upgrades enable the LHC to produce more and more particle collisions, physicists are using machine learning to keep up with the growing task of sorting through everything.
